A compact, heavy sans with squared proportions softened by rounded-rectangle (superellipse) curves. Strokes are uniformly thick with minimal modulation, producing dense counters and a strong, poster-ready silhouette. Many joins and terminals feel squared-off and engineered, with rounded corners that prevent the forms from looking sharp or brittle. The overall rhythm is tight and vertical, with broad, stable capitals and simplified lowercase shapes that keep a consistent, blocky texture in text.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and large-format messaging where a compact footprint and strong presence are needed. It also fits wayfinding, labels, and packaging that benefit from an industrial, high-impact sans, and can work for short UI or app header text when space is tight.
The tone is forceful and functional—more workwear and signage than editorial elegance. Its compressed massing and rounded-rect geometry reads confident and no-nonsense, evoking industrial labeling, sports identity, and bold display messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a condensed space while maintaining friendly, rounded corners. Its superelliptical construction prioritizes consistency and robustness, aiming for a sturdy, contemporary display sans that reads quickly and holds up in bold applications.
Letterforms lean toward rectangular construction: bowls and counters often appear as rounded boxes, and interior apertures stay relatively small at the shown weight. Numerals match the same sturdy, squared system, helping headings and short UI labels maintain a uniform, punchy color.
